|
| |
| Assuming that you'll come back to this wiki after your block expires, I've got a tip for you. I've noticed you've been relying on sources outside of DiC Entertainment for information relating to the ''Super Mario Bros. Super Show''. While WildBrain is the legal owner of DiC, it's blatantly obvious from some of their other work that they're a bunch of underpaid nine-to-five desk-workers who have no understanding of the actual media and are just throwing together titles and descriptions that would grab the attention of young children who would watch the videos, giving the company ad revenue (money is the only thing that matters in a capitalist society). I'd recommend avoiding info from WildBrain and focus directly on contemporary sources from DiC themselves (namely, the episodes which we're actually covering). I hope this is helpful. - [[User:AwdryFan1997|AwdryFan1997]] ([[User talk:AwdryFan1997|talk]]) 13:25, December 16, 2020 (EST)

|
| |
| Dear admins,
| |
|
| |
| So let me explain myself. The reason I did all that was because the user was not providing enough physical evidence in wording. First, they mentioned it was on "Discord," which I read on the news was an extremely dangerous website for bad people, then he explained that it was on "MKT News page’" which does not exist (as far I searched up and have heard about). Please let me back I do not want to sound like I'm begging, but I was just doing the right thing in my position (in my honest opinion). Please respond, this is urgent, although I doubt anyone will because almost nobody ever responds to me on here. I also know that I am supposed to e-mail an admin, but my current e-mail will not let me, so this is my only choice

| :Then the correct course of action was to ''ask'' the user for clarification, not repeatedly remove the edit and calling it out as "speculation", even after the user mentioned otherwise twice. Numerous times you've been told this. Removing something that was blatantly false would have been understandable, but doing that for something that had considerable validity to it (especially from a user who has made mostly trustworthy edits) and could have been resolved simply by asking them is not acceptable. Post a message, they let you know, and the page is left without further needless back-and-forth edit reverting. The 2nd-week spotlight drivers were featured on the tour splash screen and the trailer (also displayed on the news page, which is found in the game's menus), which has always been the case for past tours. Regarding Discord, that's an instant messaging platform; how dangerous it is all depends on the types of servers you partake in and people you choose to communicate with. That's still not a reason to remove the edit. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 06:53, January 13, 2021 (EST)

| ::You don't understand about this. I have a mental issue which makes it really hard to talk to people not in person. And when I did ask on this wiki, most times people didn’t answer. It's like nobody cares about me on here. And when people are rude to me, others say that I'm just making that up...

| == Regarding your editing experience ==
| |
| Hello, and welcome back! I just saw your message directly above and, since it’s quite ominous, I’m curious how you’ve been holding out these past few months.
| |
|
| |
| I know that editing can become a frustrating endeavour when you feel you can’t quite get the grasp of it despite being one of the few things that bring you joy. I hope that you are able to start fresh and listen to what people here tell you. Remember, when in doubt, talk to others! Ask for advice or opinions! All it takes is a question as simple as “Is this okay?” or a variation thereof; you don’t need to start or engage in complex discussion if you’re not socially comfortable. I wish you success. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 08:42, April 13, 2021 (EDT)

| == Some thoughts on your recent activities ==
| |
|
| |
| I believe AwdryFan1997 had told you about this, but relying on outside sources from DiC Entertainment, such as relying on Apple TV closed captions, is not recommended. It would seem as if you are relying on companies that have little to no involvement in the creation of the Mario cartoons, and as of result including information that doesn't really make all that much sense. This include your recent edits with the Apple TV closed captions, because as Alex95 said it varies from companies to companies, in addition to the fact that they're just captions made for accessibility and not meant to replace the actual script.
| |
|
| |
| I understand your commitment to assure that those Mario cartoon-related pages are up-to-date with recent sources, but you should stick with the source material and sources from DiC Entertainment themselves, rather than companies like Apple TV or WildBrain (who own the cartoons as of now) who have no involvement with the original cartoons whatsoever. Thank you, and happy editing! {{User:PanchamBro/sig}} 13:53, April 13, 2021 (EDT)

| :WildBrain [[Talk:Winterland#"Mushroom Woods"|has been suspected]] of lifting conjectural names from this wiki and using them in their synopses for Mario cartoon episodes. If we use them as a source, we risk essentially reporting our own fan-made constructs, which is not allowed. The practice that WildBrain employed here would be similar to what the English translation of the [[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia]] did, on grounds of which we have ruled it out entirely as a valid source for enemy and character names through a [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/52#Citing the Super Mario Encyclopedia|proposal]]. Since WildBrain do indeed hold a chunk of rights for the DIC Mario cartoons, we would normally greenlight information that comes from them, but given our current suspicions it's best if we run a discussion or a proposal about it first. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 15:08, April 13, 2021 (EDT)

| |
| :::It doesn't matter if they are "100% original", if it's from a source which isn't being accepted, we shouldn't use it.

| |
| :They’re the official owners, yes, nobody is arguing that. What everyone is trying to tell you is that the information they offer relies heavily on fan-written content from Super Mario Wiki.

| :::Well, not ''all'' of the information they put up is unoriginal, but the fact that ''some'' information is already makes WildBrain and what have you an unreliable, unprofessional source to cite, as Glowsquid told you.
